Individual Notes
• Joseph Bridgham is incorrectly listed as “Joseph Bridgam” in the Maine 1850 census. [2829]
• Excerpted from Genealogical History of Maine by George Thomas Little:
Joseph was captain in the war of 1812, and as all his friends and neighbors called him colonel, it is probable he had that rank in the Maine Militia; in 1834 he was a member of the state legislature, and was for many years postmaster at West Charleston, Maine. He was prominent in all the affairs of this town, and when he died his funeral was attended by nearly all its residents, many in carriages, but the majority of the men walking by twos, and the procession reached nearly half a mile.
